      The guy I feel most sorry for in all of this is @Sneakdefreak. He is absolutely solid as a rock with his support for the Warriors and Kiwis. Every year without fail he writes up his brilliant summaries of what to expect during the season, takes time out to follow these guys, and has stuck with them through all the years of dross they've invariably served up. This is the type of fan you cannot afford to lose - without people like this your whole organisation is toast.

      And what do the whingy pissy Kiwis do following their fucking dismal, worst ever performance by an NZ sports team loss to Fiji? Instead of apologising profusely to people like @Sneakdefreak and begging forgiveness for the shit-show they just put on, they instead completely ignore their real fans and just take jabs at a few fairweather haters while playing the victim. I mean FFS, it's like watching a guide on how to run your organisation into the fucking ground.

      This must seriously be testing the resolve of even the most hardened League fans in NZ.

                  Australia showing us just how “overpaid and overrated” Shaun Johnson and his mates were.

                  That said, the Fijian players giving away penalties and their right hand defence defending like turnstiles is helping.

                    Nothing to do with Fiji playing worse, they're just getting found out by a fully professional team as you'd expect. We should never underestimate just how utterly piss poor that performace from the Kiwis was.

                      Brian Smith? Fuck me dead. The Warriors are already experts at failure, why hire the quintessential king of failure.

                            Amazing scenes.

                            That was very average defence from the scrum though.

                                  if this was rugby we would be looking at endless replays of the tackles on Lolohea to see if it was late, if there was a shoulder...instead, ref made a call and got on with things.

                                    The Tongans needed that score off the penalised Michael Jennings pass. The poms are playing professional footy the way we should have done

                                      Really costly drop there. If England score first it's just about curtains.

                                        Tonga have had plenty of chances but nowhere near clinical enough.

                                          Again really highlights how unprofessional the Kiwis were compared to Aus and England.
